Hello All,

I believe its the Free Software community that needs to be involved.

We need free software groups in colleges and schools that can
think independently, there should not be any restriction of an
organization or a group.

Freedom should exist, not just for name sake..

Thank You
Regards
Sameer Mohamed Thahir
